SUBJECT: Legislative public hearing on an ordinance to annex 17 parcels totaling 35 ± acres - ANX-2024-07 and ANX-2024-14.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Planning and Zoning Division has received voluntary annexation petitions for 17 parcels totaling 35 ± acres.
ANX-2024-07 contains five (5) parcels totaling 10.68± acres and is located on the west side of North Wilder Road, South of Sam Allen Road and east of Park Road. The application states the reason for annexation is to provide ancillary services and office as a companion to the new South Florida Baptist Hospital.
ANX-2024-14 contains twelve (12) parcels totaling 24.38± acres and are located on the east and west sides of Charlie Taylor Road, south of Midway Road. The application states that the property owners would like to have the subject parcel(s) annexed into the City for long term future planning.
It has been concluded that the parcels are contiguous to the City of Plant City and reasonably compact, thereby not conflicting with any of the requirements of Chapter 171, Florida Statutes, for annexing properties.
ANX-2024-07 will incur an additional five (5) tons of solid waste obligation and ANX-2024-14 will incur an additional three (3) tons of solid waste obligation from the City to Hillsborough County.
On February 26, 2025, the Planning Board voted 7-0 on ANX-2024-07 and 6-0, with one abstention on ANX-2024-14 to forward the annexation requests to the City Commission with a recommendation of approval.
RECOMMENDATION

FISCAL IMPACT:
The annexations, if approved, will provide tax revenue from future development.
